Fixed some typos in the original post.
John Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) for 6 am. While his coffeepot (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) He put on a dress shirt (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ), designer jeans (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) and tennis shoes (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) he sat down with his calculator (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) to see how much he could spend today. After setting his watch (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) to the radio (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) he got in his car (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) filled it with GAS (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) and continued his search for a good paying AMERICAN JOB. At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day checking his Computer (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ), John decided to relax for a while. He put on his sandals (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ), poured himself a glass of wine (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ) and turned on his TV (Imported into the United States, representing American shipping jobs and generates taxes, and sold in an American store that hires Americans ), and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job in AMERICA Because John Smith does not have a marketable skill and spends all of his time projecting his shortfalls on “them foreigners” instead of applying himself to get a marketable degree and being willing to start at the bottom to get the necessary experience to improve his job marketability. But then it is always easier to blame someone else.

Actually, McCain was born in Panama. But at the time, Panama was a part of the United States (yes ol' John is old!) so he's cleared for presidenty. Or he would've been, if he won the election.

Well actually, Panama was never part of the US like Guam or Puerto Rico. The zone near the canal was, but the nation itself was and has been a constitutional democracy since 1903, a good 33 years before McCain was born. HOWEVER, he was born inside the canal zone. The debate is whether or not it belonged to the Panamanians or the US at the time. Technically, it was part of Panama's landmass, but the US signed a treaty with them which gave them control of the canal zone.

Somebody considered his ancestors to be illegal aliens once upon a time as well. Actually the folks they consider to be "Native" Americans nowadays are at least the third wave of immigrants to the new world.

So technically he was born in Panama, but he was a US citizen from birth since both his parents were US citizens. The Senate and multiple legal opinions have confirmed his status as a natural born citizen. |

I am still of the firm opinion that Obama is more American then McCain.
I have seen no proof that McCain isn't a Muslim terrorist from Kenya. |

I wouldn't say that Obama is "more" american than any other, but I can't say he is less american than McCain.
He is the president now, and if the top had any real doubts about Obama's citizenry, then he wouldn't be there. (at the top).

Buy the best product at the best product...it's the American Way!
As for McCain, both his parents were American citizens, so it doesn't matter where he was born.
